Different meshes of polyvinyl alcohol

2024-07-26

The different mesh numbers of PVA should be selected according to the specific application needs, to ensure the best effect. The mesh number of PVA indicates its particle size, the larger the mesh number, the smaller the particle diameter.


For example, ‌120 purpose polyvinyl alcohol particle size is smaller, ‌under the action of surfactants, can be better adsorbed and coated by liquid, the lubricity, and other properties are better than 80 purpose polyvinyl alcohol. ‌, therefore, ‌ when it is necessary to use polyvinyl alcohol, ‌ should be selected according to the specific application needs of different mesh of polyvinyl alcohol.

PVA
In addition, the common mesh of ‌ polyvinyl alcohol includes 12 mesh, 20 mesh, 25 mesh, ‌80 mesh and 120 mesh, ‌ grinding into powder can improve the dissolution rate of polyvinyl alcohol, ‌ but not the finer the better, the powder will lump as long as it is soaked with water, especially when the dosage is large. On the contrary, it is not conducive to the dissolution of PVA. 

 

When dissolving more than 80 mesh PVA powder, pay attention to the way of adding, need to stir quickly, add slowly, to prevent more powder together when encountering water. Dissolved larger particles of powder below 80 mesh PVA basically will not lump, but at room temperature dissolution is slower, you can stir or increase the dissolution temperature, thereby accelerating the dissolution of PVA.

 

Therefore, the appropriate mesh number should be selected according to the different requirements of the product and the situation of the reactor of the existing equipment.

Polyvinyl Alcohol Fiber Vinylon

2024-07-26

Vinylon is the trade name of polyvinyl acetal fiber, also known as Vinylon. Its performance is close to cotton, known as 'synthetic cotton', is the largest variety of existing synthetic fibers in hygroscopicity. It is not easy to ignite, near the flame melting contraction, there is a little flame at the top of the burning, when the fiber is melted into a gel, the flame becomes larger, there is thick black smoke, emitting bitter aroma, and the black small beaded particles are left after burning, which can be crushed by fingers.

 

Vinylon is the most hygroscopic variety in synthetic fibers, with a hygroscopic rate of 4.5% to 5%, close to cotton (8%). Vinylon is soft and warm, and its relative density is smaller than cotton, so the same weight of Vinylon with cotton can weave more clothing. Its thermal conductivity is low, so the warmth is good. The wear resistance and strength of Vinylon are also better than cotton, so Vinylon can be blended with cotton in many ways to save cotton. Vinylon is mainly used in the production of garments, cotton sweaters, pants, sweatshirts and other knitted fabrics, can also be used in canvas, fishing nets, surgical stitches, bicycle tire cord, filter materials. More and cotton blend: muslin, poplin, corduroy, underwear, canvas, tarps, packaging materials, work clothes, etc.

 

The main component of Vinylon is polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), but vinyl alcohol is unstable, generally with stable performance of vinyl alcohol acetate (that is, vinyl acetate) as a monomer polymerization, and then the generated polyvinyl acetate alcohol hydrolysis to polyvinyl alcohol, spinning and then treated with formaldehyde, in the polymer chain to introduce a six-membered ring structure to generate polyvinyl formaldehyde, enhance its strength. To get water resistant Vinylon.

 

The manufacture of industrial vinylon fiber is to dissolve polyvinyl alcohol in water to produce about 15% aqueous solution, through the spinneret with a diameter of about 0.07 mm, in the saturated sodium sulfate aqueous solution solidification bath to produce fiber, and then stretching and heat treatment to improve strength and heat resistance; Then in the presence of catalyst sulfuric acid, acetal reaction with formaldehyde, the temperature is about 70℃, the time is 20 to 30 minutes, after washing, oil to obtain Vinylon fiber. Vinylon fiber has short fiber, tow and filament and other varieties, of which cotton type short fiber and tow are the most common.

How to maximize the effect of polyacrylamide?

2024-07-24

Polyacrylamide is a versatile polymer with various applications, including water treatment, oil recovery, papermaking, and more. To maximize its effectiveness, here are some key considerations:

1. Molecular weight selection: Polyacrylamide is available in different molecular weights. Higher molecular weight polymers generally provide better flocculation and bridging properties, making them more suitable for solid-liquid separation and clarification processes. Lower molecular weight polymers are often used for friction reduction or as dispersants. Select the appropriate molecular weight based on your application requirements.

 

2. Dosage optimization: The optimal dosage of polyacrylamide depends on factors such as the characteristics of the system being treated, the desired treatment objectives, and the specific polymer being used. Conduct jar tests or other pilot-scale experiments to determine the optimum dosage for your particular application. Overdosing can be costly and may lead to decreased performance or adverse effects.

 

3. Proper hydration: Polyacrylamide is typically supplied as a dry powder or in solution form. It is crucial to properly hydrate the polymer before use to ensure its optimal performance. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding the hydration time, temperature, and mixing conditions. Insufficient hydration can result in reduced performance and wasted polymer.

 

4. Mixing and dispersion: Adequate mixing is essential to ensure uniform dispersion of polyacrylamide throughout the system. Use appropriate mixing equipment to achieve thorough dispersion and avoid the formation of polymer agglomerates or "fish eyes." Consider factors such as mixing speed, duration, and the order of addition of polyacrylamide to the system.

 

5. pH adjustment: The pH of the system affects the performance of polyacrylamide. Some grades of polyacrylamide are more effective in certain pH ranges. Adjust the pH of the system as necessary to optimize the performance of the polymer. However, keep in mind that extreme pH conditions can degrade the polymer or reduce its effectiveness.

 

6. Application technique: The method of application depends on the specific application and the physical form of the polyacrylamide. It can be added directly to the system as a dry powder or a dilute solution, or it can be mixed with water first and then added. Consider factors such as the flow pattern, residence time, and concentration gradients to optimize the application technique.

 

7. System monitoring: Regularly monitor the performance of the polyacrylamide treatment through appropriate analytical methods and measurements. This allows you to assess its effectiveness, make adjustments if necessary, and ensure consistent results.

 

It is essential to consult the specific guidelines and recommendations provided by the manufacturer of the polyacrylamide product you are using, as they can vary based on the product's formulation and intended application.

How to distinguish the molecular weight of polyacrylamide?

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a polymer composed of repeating units of acrylamide. It is available in various grades distinguished by their molecular weights. The molecular weight of PAM affects its physical properties and performance in different applications. Here are the key differences between polyacrylamide with different molecular weights:

 

1. Molecular Weight: PAM can have molecular weights ranging from several thousand to millions of Molecular weight. The higher the molecular weight, the larger the polymer chains and the increased viscosity of the solution.

 

2. Solution Viscosity: Higher molecular weight PAM forms more viscous solutions. This property is important for applications like thickening, flocculation, and solid-liquid separation processes.

 

3. Flocculation Ability: PAM with higher molecular weights exhibits stronger flocculation ability, which is useful in water treatment processes where suspended particles need to be agglomerated and settled.

 

4. Shear Resistance: Higher molecular weight PAMs offer resistance to mechanical shear forces, making them suitable for applications in high-shear conditions such as oil drilling or hydraulic fracturing.

 

5. Gel Formation: Higher molecular weight PAMs have a higher tendency to form gels, making them suitable for gel electrophoresis and other gel-based applications.

 

6. Dissolution Time: Lower molecular weight PAMs typically dissolve more quickly than higher molecular weight ones due to their smaller particle size.

 

7. Price: The cost of PAM increases with increasing molecular weight, as higher molecular weights require more complex synthesis processes.

 

When selecting a grade of PAM, it's essential to consider the specific requirements of the application, such as desired viscosity, flocculation efficiency, shear resistance, and, to choose the most appropriate molecular weight grade.
